Nivea Soft Moisturizing Crème Review

You can purchase the full size of this creme at Target for $4.79.

This creme claims to provide refreshing and invigorating sensation while be a fast absorbing, light formula. It uses Vitamin E and Jojoba Oil to leave skin soft. 

This lotion has a very nice fresh scent. It had a creamy texture and left my skin feeling hydrated and silky with out leaving a greasy mess. It did not leave my skin hydrated for very long though. 

Would I purchase? No

Nivea Men Creme Review

My boyfriend received this in a recent Men's Target Beauty Box. You can purchase this at Target for $5.49. 

This is a non greasy, fast absorbing, multi- purpose moisturizing creme made especially for men. You can use it anywhere on your body, hands, or face. It claims to reduce dryness and replenish hydration. 

This creme had a typical Nivea cologne scent which was nice. It was very greasy and my boyfriend said it did nothing for his skin at all. 

Would I purchase? Maybe

Empty Product Reviews

I was asked to do a blog on products that I use up, so I collected my "empties" for 3 months so you can see what I use the most of. You will see a lot of sample sizes, I am trying to use up samples this year.
January Empties

January I went through a lot of deluxe sample size products. I'll start at the top and work my way down. 

1. Smashbox Mascara- did not like this, it irritated my contacts so I just didn't use it enough and it dried out 

2. Nars Lip pencil- I really liked this pencil and the color but it was so soft I couldn't even sharpen it without it making a mess

3. Secret Deodorant- I used it up but its not my favorite

4. Jergens Wet Skin- I LOVE this product. As you can see I used up a little bottle as well as a full-size and already have more in the shower

5. Olay Body Wash- I used it up, it was ok, probably won't buy again. 

6. Nivea Shower Lotion- I used it up, I like the Jergens better but they work really nicely together if you really want moisturized skin

7. Bath and Body Works Body Wash- This was the scent endless summer, I tend to just end up using it as a bubble bath. 

February Empties:

I will start on the left and work around in a circle. 

1. Tarte Clean Slate Flawless 12 hour brightening primer- It was ok. Nothing too special. 

2. Sephora Outrageous Curl Mascara- I Loved this mascara, I did every pinterest hack I could find to get every last drop out. 

3. Matrix Biolage Color Care Shine Shake- This is my most favorite hair product. I went to 5 stores just to find one to replace it.

4. Herbal Essence Naked Dry Shampoo- It was ok, not my favorite but I didn't hate it. 

5. Aveeno Skin Relief Body Wash- the scent is amazing but I was not a big fan of the formula.

6. Nourish Organic Argan Face Serum- I used it up because I hate throwing perfectly good products away but it in no way compared to my normal serum that I use. 

7. Simple Micellar Make Up Remover Wipes- I really liked these. I got them in a target beauty box and I will be buying these again when I run out of the many packs I have of other wipes at the house.

These are my March empties. I did pretty good this month with using up sample size products so that makes me happy. 

1. Dove Deep Moisture Nourishing Bosy Wash- if I have a coupon there is always a possibility I will purchase again. 

2. Nivea In-Shower Body Lotion- I used the very dry skin with almond oil. I love the scent and I will purchase again. 

3. Skintimate Shave Gel- I normally just purchase what's on sale or what I have a coupon for. I did like this though. 

4. Klorane Eye Patches- very moisturizing. I would repurchase. 

5. Nars Audacious Mascara- it was a nice mascara but made my eyes itch. I don't think I will repurchase. 

6. Tarte Poreless Primer- I love Tarte primer! Once I use up all I have there is a good chance I will repurchase. 

7. Peter Thomas Roth Cucumber Gel Mask- smells amazing and felt very refreshing. I doubt I will be repurchase because I didn't feel it did anything for my skin. 

8. Hourglass Veil Primer- I really liked this primer. I'm not sure I'll purchase. It just seems to expensive for me. 

9. Nip+Fab Glycolic Fix- I love these pads. They smell great and make my skin look and feel amazing. I already purchased a full size. 

So, leave me a comment and let me know if you want more posts like these.

Nivea In-Shower Body Lotion Review

I received this in a beauty box. I was pretty excited since I had just run out of the dry skin version. This is so convenient to use. You can buy the full size at Target for $5.69. There are 3 different types of this lotion, normal- dry, dry, and very dry skin. This sample was the very dry skin with Almond Oil, it had a very fresh scent. It smelled really good! I like to put this on at the end of my shower and let it soak in just a bit than you just rinse it off and go on with your daily routine. I find it makes my skin very soft but it does make the tub a little slippery. It does not leave your skin greasy or sticky either which is really nice. 

Would I purchase a full size? Yes I will. By the time you read this I probably already would have!
